What the proposed improvements will do
These improvements will:
- significantly reduce the risk of flooding to residential and recreational Stanley Bay properties
- improve water quality at Ngataringa Bay
- reduce foul odours in the area
- improve the environment for people, birds, and marine life
- minimise wastewater overflows into Auckland Harbour
- enhance and upgrade Stanley Bay Reserve.
How we'll do this
We are:
- replacing the existing bund and culvert pipe at the coastal boundary
- constructing a plant bench and a footbridge
- creating salt water zones
- re-shaping the watercourse banks
- adding infill planting and mulching
- clearing debris and sediment.
